Why can i load open office to my Mac but not my iPad?

trying to get a good office suite software onto my iPad, but cannot load OpenOffice to it, but i can to my Mac. Safari says it cannot download it. Why not?

You can not download ANYTHING to your iPad from Safari. iOS is completely different than the OS on your computer. It is a closed and extremely protected OS. You can look for office productivity tools in the App Store, like Pages or Numbers (One for Word documents, the other for Excel type spreadsheets), but they are iOS apps and only operate on your iPad.

TS2621 emails can be full opened in m/s Vista but not on ipad

My 86 yr old cousin has a laptop Vista, she is receiving her emails ok on it but as she is using her iPad more & more, she is becoming frustrated by the fact that the emails reach her Inbox but she is unable to open them up fully. She has been on to her ISP on 3 occasions & still has the problem, everyone tells her it is an ISP problem but I think it is an Apple/iPad problem. She has only been using a computer for 5 years & has been loving it. Can anyone help please

First thing to try is a reset of the iPad: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go. If that doesn't work, you could try deleting the account and re-adding it, making sure the settings are correct according to your provider's specs.

Why can I use my iCloud alias on iPhone but not on iPad?

Tried this
Use the OTHER option instead of iCloud or MobileMe. Use the alias as the email address. Incoming mail server is mail.me.com. User name and password is your primary acct name. Outgoing server is smtp.mail.com.
Doesn't work. Server rejects alias
Suggestions?

Yes.

Why Can't I open spreadsheet on my Mac Book?

Why Can't I open spreadsheet on my Mac Book Pro? I have gone to the App store to download the most current version of Numbers, but am told it is already installed. The version of Numbers on my computer says it is 2.3 (554). ( in "about Numbers"). If it is already installed why can't I open a spreadsheet created long ago, but used recently without any problems until today. Very Frustrated. I have Maverick on my 2012

Your Mac is too old. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842 .
Also, a Mac with 2 GB of memory does not run well on Mavericks.

Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad?

Why is my Apple id working on my MacBook but not my iPad? I can log in o.k. on my MacBook, but using the same user name and password on my iPad, I just get the Incorrect Apple ID or Password message.

My Macbook is running 10.8.5.
But the same problme persists.
Please help

If time machine puts all of my photos onto my external hard drive using time machine, can I then delete the photos from my computer but view them again from the external hard drive? Basically, can I free up space on my mac but not lose years of photos?

To add to Niel's comment bear in mind that if you have a backup copy on an external HD and later delete the orignals on your Mac HD you will then only have one copy - so no backup.
If the pictures are precious you should have at least two copies, and ideally another copy kept off site,

Why can I access files using ubuntu live cd but not my mac?

Hello,
Every since I have upgraded to Lion then to Mountain Lion I have had nothing but trouble with my mac crashing and not being able to repair the harddrive. I use time machine with an external hard drive to back up everything (also using online server to back up things as well).
My issue is that disk utility never works ( ever ) and when I have trouble the hard drive and my external hard drive always show up grayed out and disk utility says the disk is broken and cannot be repaired. Which the disk are fine because I can access them using a ubuntu live cd no problem.
My main question is how is this not being addressed by apple? This is clearly a bug - there is nothing wrong with my external harddrive or my macs hardrive - yet when I restart my mac I fear it will never start again(in its current state) and the disk utility just doesn't work the only answers I ever get is the hard drive is bad (which is not the case being I can access it with the ubuntu - or even reinstall everything and it works fine etc...)
There is some major bugs and I can say I never had these problems losing my data with a windows machine (though I am not a big windows fan). Apple why doesn't the disk utility work?
Also why when I update my mac and the mac restarts itself does it not eject my external hardrive - also why if you don't eject the harddrive it ruins the data on the hard drive or at least makes it grayed out or corrupt in my mac - but I can copy the files in ubuntu and put them back then it works just fine? These are serious issues and I am really shocked that the mac community would stand for this kind of thing - I am not the only one with these issues I see thousands of others with the same issues so when are they going to be fixed?
If what I am saying is unclear - just google mac hardrive cannot be repaired - and set the time for the last month you will see. Also to those who have these troubles simply use a ubuntu live cd - copy all your files to the home folder then place them back to where the reside and mac will reconize them again - worked every time for me so far no thanks to disk utility.

Your booting off a Ubuntu disk which has it's own operating system on it and on another medium that is free of issues, unlike your current hard drive running OS X 10.8.
I really don't advise you directly installing Linux on a Mac as it's much more complicated that it appears. Also I don't advise you using Linux anything to tinker with a Mac unless you really really know what your doing.
Since your Mac's software is broken you don't know currently and shouldn't be using Linux as a band-aid solution to your problem.
My suggestion is you FIX your primary boot drive.
disk utility says the disk is broken and cannot be repaired
This calls for a complete zero erase and install of the affected area, if it's just the Macintosh HD partition then fine, it's a hold command r boot into Recovery HD and use Disk Utiltiy there to Erase with the middle secure erase feature (important) and then a reinstall of OS X 10.8 from Apple's servers over a fast Ethernet connection.
If your GUID partition table or Recovery HD is affected, then you need to command option r boot into Internet Recovery and select the entire hard drive for the same zero/middle erase proceedure, unless you have a older MacBook Pro then you need to use option key boot off the 10.6 disks and use the Secure Erase/ Zero on the entire drive, install 10.6, then update to 10.6.8, then AppStore upgrade to 10.8 again.
You need to only restore user files into same named accounts from a Storage Drive backup, do not use Migration or Setup assistant as your TimeMachine drive data is likely corrupted. This means all new softwre installs from original sources as well.
Read through my many User Tips, you'll be fixing your own machine in no time.

also why if you don't eject the harddrive it ruins the data on the hard drive or at least makes it grayed out or corrupt in my mac
Windows and Linux also has to "safely remove hardware" or "unmount" before ejecting a drive as well or it corrupts the data.
I guess this feature came about so one can disconnect a drive without having to physically remove it and wear out the ports doing so.

HT4059 why can you browse, and buys books from itunes but not read them on my iMac? Pretty lame I think. my kindle show up across all my computers, iPhones and Android devices no problem.

just wondering why you can browse, buy on itunes but not read on an imac. My kindle apps work on the imac, ipod, asus netbook, iphone and android devices. Why not ibooks on imac?

"just wondering why you can browse, buy on itunes but not read on an imac. "
Because Apple does not make an ibook reader for computers.

Emails containing PDF files can be seen as attachments on an iPhone but not my iPad

When receiving emails with PDF attachments these can be seen as attachments on my iPhone however on my iPad these appear in the body of the email and not as attachments. I have checked that the original emails were sent using HTML.

If it's a one page PDF then they will tend to show in the body of the body of the email on an iPad. You should still be able to do copy the PDF to another app by pressing and holding the PDF and after a second or two you should get a popup

Can get iMessage to send on Mac but not on iPad 2?

I've tried the dns fix, signing in and out, resetting network settings, resetting settings, unchecked email accounts other then my apple id and still I can't send messages on my iPad 2.. It works on my mac but doesn't seem to be syncing to my iPad or anything.. Any ideas?

Try this support article > iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups
I set up the iPad first, could that have caused a problem?
Shouldn't make any difference.

Attachments -- why can I drag them off on one computer but not another??...

Hello -- I have two different Mac Pro's, an iBook and a Snow iMac. (Everything running OS X 10.5.7 except the iMac is 10.3.9.) On most of the computers, when I look at an email in Mail that has an mp3 attachment, I can just click-and-drag it right onto the desktop, no problem. But on ONE Mac Pro I get the annoying message about "Do you want to download this?", so I click Download, and most of the time it does not download, though sometimes it will & iTunes opens up. BUT, I would prefer to just drag the attachment out of the email. I can't seem to find a Pref to tweak... Anybody got a solution for this annoyance? Thank you very much in advance.

I'm pretty sure we're using a generic ethernet module:
I can communicate explicitly with the problem computer, it's able to use 'Tag Read' and 'Tag Write' to communicate with the PLC.
We started having another problem just recently too. The Tag Read and Write commands are almost always timing out. I keep getting the error message -251723752:
Detailed error info: Error -251723752 occurred at EthernetIP Tag Read REAL.vi;Details: The request response was not received in the requested timeout period Possible reason(s): Ethernet/IP Industrial Protocol: (Hex 0xF0FF0018) The request response was not received in the requested timeout period
I can't figure out what's causing this all of a sudden, could these issues be related?

Why can some websites work well in other browsers but not in Firefox 3.6?

Today I went to Turbo Tax.com to file my taxes, but for some reason Firefox 3.6 would not let me get past logging in and their homepage. At first I thought it was the website, so I contacted their support who couldn't figure out the problem, so I opened Chrome to see if it would work on it. Guess what I did my taxes without a hitch. On Gamefly.com Firefox won't let me move a selected game to the number one position, but it will on Netflix.com. Firefox is my default browser and I would like to keep it as such but I can't with this kind of iffy proformance. Help! By the way I am running Windows 7 64-bit on a Dell desktop pc. Comodo is my firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials is my anti-virus. FYI

Although that error references the problem line in the script as line 71, that line actually has numerous commands in a compressed form that is very hard to read, so I can't see immediately what the issue might be.
In case one of your extensions is involved, have you tested the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

TS4002 Why can I attach a PDF file in Gmail, but not in iCloud on the same iMac?

My wife and I share the same iCloud account with two separate email addresses. She has been having problems periodically over the last serveral months accessing and receiving mail on our iPad and less frequently on our iMac. I have not had as many issues, but recently have had difficulty attaching pdf files to my mail. I can do it easily in Gmail on the same iMac! Whats up?
My iMac is getting old in the tooth, it is a 2006 model, not eligible for Mountain lion. Our iPad is the first, updated to use ios5.

I migrated to iCloud from Mobile Me. In Mobil Me there was a family plan. I'm not sure what it is called in iCloud. It was my understanding that both our email addresses were part of the same plan. At any rate my wife frequently has had problems accessing her mail on our iPad. I have attributed all this to Lion not being as sharp as it could be or developmental problems with iCloud. But I know from nothing.
I'm not sure of anything, but I am relatively certain we have an iCloud account. I didn't even know the iTunes had a mail feature.
